I got news for people. On important stuff like this, it's already a totalitarian state. But on the things that we think we have some control over, it's the periphery. It's not the essential information. And so what we need to do is re-empower democracy and the presidency and the Congress with the correct information. And then the people need to then voice what they want out.
So now are there going to be decisions? I 100% agree. If you go all the way back to the 90s, we recommended to President Clinton and his team that not all these technologies by any means can be left, come out all at once.

But there have to be at beginning the process because otherwise we'll be here another 100 years sitting on a ruined planet with this as being because a bunch of money-grubbing CEOs and investors in Wall Street don't want the truth out, right? or transnational corporations. So to get this fixed is going to take some real courage.

And what you alluded to is another level of courage because you're going to have to say to some of your friends... who are in the energy sector, well, had a nice 200-year run with the old industrial revolution, time for a new industrial revolution, time for a golden age. And that's what needs to happen. Now, you may say it can't.

Right.
Right.
You're assuming that the presidency is omnipotent and that there aren't other powers out there. It's a false assumption. What I'm saying is that if our leaders don't get on the right side of this, this decision will be taken away from them. So I would suggest that they think long and hard about resisting the winds of the universe, the course of history.

And what everyone wants to do is kick the can down the road. I am not unsympathetic to the fact that this would be, quote, unquote, a disruptive technology. But at the same time, I look at what the future is without it, right? So let's do a risk-benefit analysis on that, right? We do it as doctors all the time. What's the risk of this treatment versus its benefit?

Okay, so when I asked him the questionâ Well, I mean he's the most powerful acknowledged one, but the people in this organization have more power.
